The black box for a China Eastern Airlines Corp jet that crashed earlier this year suggests the Boeing Co plane took an intentional nosedive, the Wall Street Journal said.
Data recovered from the black box suggest that someone in the cockpit input controls that sent the plane into its deadly descent, the Journal reported, citing people familiar with US officials’ preliminary assessment of the incident.
The Boeing 737-800 jetliner was en route from Kunming to Guangzhou on March 21 when it plummeted from the sky, killing all 132 passengers and crew.
The Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
